FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to the field of virtual and augmented reality interfaces. Specifically, the present invention relates to a virtual reality input and haptic feedback system.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Users can experience the virtual world through visual and auditory senses through virtual reality (VR)/augmented reality (AR) headsets, but how do users interact with the virtual world through haptics? The disadvantages of general VR handheld controllers include the lack of stress feedback, the inability to provide accurate haptic feedback (no shape, hardness, weight and temperature), and no auto-correlation functions.

With the development of virtual reality (VR)/augmented reality (AR)/mixed reality (MR) head-mounted devices, users can experience the virtual world through visual and auditory senses, but how users interact with the virtual world through haptics depends on the collected mobile data and the provided feedback from the virtual reality interface. The general virtual reality interface or system can only provide a simple stress feedback function, but cannot accurately simulate the reaction force or stress generated by the object. In addition, these systems are also unable to provide feedback on the surface texture or the sense of reality, allowing users to feel the physical characteristics of the virtual world.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention are clearly and completely described in the following with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. It is obvious that the described embodiments are only parts of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art without creative work should fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

Some embodiments disclosed herein relate generally to a haptic feedback device which is configured to use haptic senses to represent virtual objects in contact by the people in VR, AR, and MR spaces. The smart glove uses airflow energy drive technology, special chemical reaction control technology and advanced motion capture algorithms to perform real object senses with precise haptic senses (shape, hardness) in the world of Virtual Reality (VR)/Augmented Reality (AR)/Mixed Reality (MR), maintaining torque, force and surface temperature and texture of the object and touch (haptic) feel. Unlike most haptic sensing systems (for example application service motor drive system), the present invention performs haptic feel and haptic senses. When you want to grab objects in the virtual/augmented world, cuffs on the fingertips of the smart glove swell and produce pressure on the fingertips, so the user can feel the virtual objects seamlessly and create “touch” feel; i.e., the smart glove stimulates your hands to convey the emotional use of airflow energy.

Moreover, the smart glove can not only adapt your fingers to the shape of virtual objects, but also dynamically change the airflow to simulate the hardness of virtual objects, so the user can not only perceive the physical existence of virtual objects, but also the shape and weight, such as the difference between a virtual metal sword and a virtual rubber doll. The pouched fingertips can indeed be flexible and inflated to create the haptic senses. In addition, the smart glove performs the surface temperatures to sense the virtual objects, such as the difference of placing the user's hand in cold water and near a burning fireplace.

The smart glove can be combined with its own Software Development Kit (SDK) to make it easy for VR/AR/MR developers to use different features in virtual environments. The developers can use SDK to develop applications through Facebook Oculus, HTC Vive, Sony PlayStat VR, Samsung Gear VR, Microsoft HoloLens, Google Daydream, Google Cardboard and other VR/AR/MR devices.

As long as there is airflow from 508, 500 can directly flow to 509, and the processor can freely flow the airflow to the required duct without any control. If the micro electromagnetic airflow piston is closed, the haptic neural AI processor sends the logic circuit ‘1’, current flows from 504 and generates a magnetic field at 507, automatically pulling 506 and 502 to 507 and sticking it tightly at 507, so that the airway 508 and 509 is tightly closed by 502 and the airway is closed. The electric energy generated by 507 is converted into magnetic force with a stress of about 100 KPa to 500 KPa.
